I had my interview around 11:30 so I decided to go a bit in advance. When I arrive (around 11:00) the waiting room was completely full and the lady in the desk told me there were a lot of people before me. I waited until 12:15 until they allowed me to go inside the room and then waited over there for other 15 minutes. After it they took the original copies and the tax transcript for 2018. The interview took about 5 minutes and the only question was 'Tell me about your wife'. After it they said I was approved and that the password would arrive in 4 to 6 working days.
Some tips:
- You cannot bring any backpack to the interview, they won't allow you the entry to the Embassy. Also they keep your mobile phone in the entry with the security (they were super nice).
- Expect a lot of people. It doesn't matter if you are doing the interview for the spouse visa since the consular officers are the same ones that do the paper work for the rest of visas.
- Bring all the original copies and any document you coudln't upload to CEAC.
- The appointment date is only an estimated time for the interview, expect an hour/hour and a half of delay.
- Just be honest with the consular officer and you'll be fine.
